hment also appeared on Shen Qiu Nan's face. She didn't expect Ling Hao to have such courage.To her surprise, she felt a sense of relief. She had wanted to slap Qin Yujiao for a long time, but she had...Dozens of shadowy figures, their voices icy cold, pointed their long blades at Zhou Zheng.

Kill intent permeated the air, and the already tense atmosphere escalated further.

"I didn't expect this, I underestimated you all!"

"Damn it!"

Ding Mao reacted, his face pale as anger filled his voice.

He was at Ghost Valley Ridge, thinking he could control everything.

He never expected that so many assassins would be hiding in Guigu Ridge, unbeknownst to him.

Thinking back, I used to be so smug, thinking I was the best because I managed to subdue the Shadow Controller. Now it's clear how foolish I was!

A real clown.

Everything, it's all just a trap deliberately set up by the Celestial Emperor and his shadow!

"Ding Mao, do you really think you're so cunning, that you can fool everyone"

"If it weren't for Your Majesty waiting for what Xiao Qing left behind, you and Gui Gu Ling would have been erased by Your Majesty long ago!"

Shadow sneered, he had never placed Ding Mao in his eyes.

If it weren't for the fact that Ding Mao (a small insignificant person) was still of some use, Emperor Tianjing, given his temperament, would have razed Ghost Valley Ridge to the ground the moment Guiguzi died.

Where else will there be a chance for Ding Mao to be possessed and tricked

Ruthless words, while leaving Ding Mao's face ashen, also fueled a burning rage within him.

But despite the dozens of gleaming blades pointed at him, he was helpless.

Could this be the final outcome

Over the years, Emperor Tianjing has ruled with benevolence and righteousness, truly making everyone forget his past methods.

"This palace was still a bit careless, wasn't it"

Zhou Zheng's face remained calm, he let out a light sigh and had to admit, Tian Jingdi's move of breaking the cauldron and sinking the boat truly caught him off guard.

"Alas, you think that your darling who is capable of conquering the world is nothing but a mere pistol."

Shaking his head, Zhou Zheng spoke softly.

"For this thing, to stake one's throne and even the entire Jiangshan of the Zhou Dynasty, is it worth it"

A smirk played on his lips. If Zhou Zheng had never appeared in this world, then the pistol in the stone box might have truly changed the course of history.

Zhou Zheng already had a repeating crossbow, he had muskets, and even made pistols!

No one knows this is a handgun.

Moreover, everything Xiao Qing left behind has long become Your Majesty's obsession.

Whatever it is that remains, it must be found.

The pain in his hand caused the shadow's features to twist once more.

However, he was not in a hurry to have the Shadow take action. Instead, he explained slowly.

Zhou Zheng did not question those words.

Perhaps, as the shadow said, in twenty years, what Xiao Qing left behind truly wasn't that important.

Finding that thing is what truly matters.

Moreover, the pistol in this stone box looks much more formidable than your firearms.

His pupils constricted. If he hadn't been careless just now, he wouldn't have fallen to this state.

His right hand was nearly crippled by Zhou Zhen, and his strength in the future is bound to be greatly reduced.

But as soon as he thought of the Emperor Tianjing's promise, Shadow gritted his teeth and a glimmer returned to his eyes. It was all worth it.

However, in this round, this palace might not lose.

Zhou Zheng looked around, his gaze falling back on the shadow.

"Do you think they could kill me"

Raising the gun again, Zhou Zheng's face showed no fear whatsoever.

And the entire action finally gave Ding Mao, who was trembling with fear earlier, a sliver of confidence.

Because Zhou Zheng's words were pointed, the shadows involuntarily retreated a bit.

Of course, everyone knows the power of Zhou Zheng's handgun.

No one wants to be hit by a bullet.

"Useless."

How many bullets are left in your gun

And you, how many people do you think you could kill

The shadow did not care.

These shadows were all elite assassins he had trained, each one a top-tier fighter.

Although he would feel heartbroken to lose even one, the current situation doesn't allow for such sentiment.ed forward, pointing at Ling Hao: "Get down on your knees right now!"Whoosh!Before the man could finish his words, Lu Yue flicked his finger, a gust of wind swept over, and the man's fingers fell stra...
